Multiple vulnerabilities have been identified in CoolPlayer, which could be exploited by attackers to cause a denial of service or execute arbitrary commands.
The first issue is due to a buffer overflow error in the "CPL_AddPrefixedFile()" [CPI_Playlist.c] function when processing overly long playlist file, which could be exploited by attackers to compromise a vulnerable system.
The second flaw is due to an error in the "main_skin_check_ini_value()" [skin.c] when processing malformed skins, which could be exploited by attackers to execute arbitrary commands.
The third vulnerability is due to a buffer overflow error in the "main_skin_open()" [skin.c] function when processing malformed skins, which could be exploited by attackers to compromise a vulnerable system.
